Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 g Whole wheat flour
- 200 g Bread flour
- 100 g Okara (fresh or slightly dried soy pulp)
- 250 ml Warm water
- 2 tsp Active dry yeast
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 1 tsp Salt
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the warm water and honey. Sprinkle the active dry yeast on top and let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, bread flour, and salt.
Add the fresh okara, olive oil, and the yeast mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix everything together until a shaggy dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Alternatively, you can use a stand mixer with a dough hook for 6-8 minutes.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Punch the dough down and shape it into a loaf. Place the shaped dough into a greased 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Cover the pan and let the dough rise again for 30-45 minutes, or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and enjoy your wholesome Whole Wheat Okara Bread!
